Avery Grande was all in for 130,000 from the button as Chance Kornuth put him at risk in early position.
Avery Grande: Q♠Q♦ 
Chance Kornuth: K♠K♦
Grande has run his queens into Kornuth's kings and found no help on the 2♠8♥6♥5♦2♥ board as Kornuth took the big pot, sending Grande to the rail.
Christian De Leon got his stack of 69,000 all in preflop and was flipping for his tournament life against David Moses.
Christian De Leon: J♥J♦
David Moses: A♦K♠
De Leon had the pocket pair and was just looking to hold. He did so on both the 8♦8♥7♣ flop and 5♣ turn, while the J♠ river actually improved him to a full house to give him the double.

The remaining 168 players are on their third 10-minute break of the day.
Ben Ludlow opened the button to 5,000 and Yayun Liu defended his big blind.
On the J♥8♣4♦ flop, Ludlow continued for 4,000 before Liu check-raised to 11,500. Ludlow responded with an all-in jam for his remaining 48,000. After confirming the count, Liu shrugged as he put in the call.
Ben Ludlow: A♠J♣
Yayun Liu: Q♦8♦
Ludlow was in good shape after flopping top pair against the middle pair of Liu. However, the dealer peeled the Q♠ on the turn to give Liu the lead and nothing changed on the 7♠ river as Ludlow hit the exit in brutal fashion.
